JOSEPH MEDILL ON POLITICS.
THE SENTIMENT OF THE COUNTRY, HE SAYS, Is ron
BIAINE-cLEvELAND SURE TO Blk RENoMINATRD
There is not much politics In the country There
can't be whom oneha Of all the politics Of the coming
Presidential year already settled by the certainly
foreshadowed nomination Of Mr.. Cleveland. Az for
the other sde repeat what said you year ago,
that II the State Of NewYork shall unite upon candi
date before the Republican National Convention the
other side of the political battle will be determined"
This the substance Of the opening Of interview
at the Brevoort House yesterday with Joseph Med the
veteran editor and OF The Chicago Tribune. Mr..
Med il his way TO the Catskills with his wife and
daughter After staying In that region for two weeks
they will go to the Adro for month. Mr. Mediu
sat comfortable chair, and held ear-trumpet
his hand which he used occasionally In the
ton. On the table second trumpet, copy Of
Jeanj valjean" and copies Of the afternoon papers
which he had not yet read Mr. Medill continued II
answer to inquiries, saying among other things:
sThere 10 no doubt about Mr.. Ceyeland's renominar
ton. 1t will take place even II New-York State u
against him There is escape from il. Whether he
L. stronger weaker than he when he before
will have nothing do with It, His friends he Is
stronger. They say he will get the wealthy element Of
society at his back am told that frequently By his
friends But that he will be renominated ID certain

situation in the States Of NewYork, New-Jersey and
Connecticut These States have been the centre of tho
contest for the last Presidential elections. They viii
DO the Of the contest again in 1885, looks
though the carrying Of NcwYork will depend upon what
the labor may amount to- The labor element has
been losing its affection for the Democratic party for
long time The fact s that the Democratic party with
all its professions added much cracker
to the poor mans larder. It has been all talk and
cider The laborng have found that out slowly but
they found 1t out they In earnest In their
intention to organize separate party and run sepa-
ticket in all the States and especially in Ne~Yor
they will restore the equality Of balance between the
two old partiea They will be to the Democratic party
what the Prohibitioniss have been to the Republican
party. The Prohbit0nsts have been looping Off votes
from US with tho encouragement of the Democratic
party. Tho Prohbitionsts have not wanted Us to be
temperance party even but have wanted to az do

ton and 30 ethey would reach their aim They wanted
the Democrats go into power to get something

give the coontry dts IN order to be able to cure It.
quite evident that the labor movement Is earnest
one enough Democrats will engage In 1t than Re-
pubcans make up for the losses that tho Republican
party sustained from the Prohibition exodus and
thus there were originally more Republicans than
Democrats shall be able 70 win"
What about men ~
well now must refer you again to what said
here year ago. NewYork Is practically united upon
any man he have the Republican nomination, who
ever he may be- The sentiment the country is for
Mr. Blaine But II New-YOrk should come forward with
another man. the delegates would be disposed to say.
We regret that you do not agree with about Blaine
but we recognize the fact that ~ have the bur
